Reader: Only Overweight, Lonely Women Hate on Strippers

I don't think that only overweight, lonely women hate on strippers. However, I partially agree with what he said. I've gone to the strip club with my husband before. He won't go with his guy friends alone, but he likes for me to take him. I don't mind. I would never be a stripper, not in a million years but I can't hate on those who are.

I don't think the attention strippers get is anything to be jealous of. Men want them physically but do not respect them as a human being at all. They get their jollies and then it's back home to the wives and /or girlfriends. Or even boyfriends, but that's another topic for another day.
I have heard and read horror stories about how men treat strippers, like putting cigarettes out on them, etc, they use them like Kleenex...hardly anything to aspire to or be envious of.
A perfect example of the Madonna/Whore complex. The "bad woman" to use for pleasure and the "good woman" to keep at home raising your kids.

Pete knows he could have included what Jinx said the next day after writing this...but again...just wants to get everyone all worked up.

long time reader, first time poster, yes I totally agree, although I would just extend it to women with major self esteem issues. I have known a few girls over the years that have been dancers (BTW, the PC term for strippers is "dancers", some girls get offended if you call them strippers), at some point in thier lives and they were all single moms just trying to make some extra money to support thier kids. I never had a problem with my ex going, although he claims he really didnt like it (he's also a cheap a**)I have been before, it was fun, cheap beer but its not something I would do all the time. I never understood some womens position that it is degrading, if anything I think it is empowering, women making money with the gifts the good lord gave them. You go girl(s)!

I would disagree. I think any woman who is insecure in their own bodies, or insecure in their relationships have problems with "Dancers." It also has a lot to do with society and religion...even though the worlds oldest professions is? Sometimes people forget how to use their own brains and are happy letting society decide things for them. General population thinks Nude Bars are wrong, so naturally the sheep of the world will think the same way. Oh and my mom is a 289lbs lady who loves dancers! It just comes down to who the person is.

Hmm.. nice that you didn't note that I've already apologized for the way I made my comment. But if it spurs reaction I can understand why you decided not to.

In defense of the ogre who wrote this terrible post..

Jinx said:
To Me, yeah I regretted hitting post as soon as I hit it. I wasn't very tactful at all in trying to get my point across. There are plenty of women who are very self confident and secure with themselves who aren't supermodels. The oppinion I was trying to stress was that the majority of the people who tend to bitch about people that make a living in a job where being good looking gives an edge are people who were lacking in the area of self confidence. I apologize for the verbage I used before.
Back on subject though, whatever profession we work in, we all do the best we can with what we can. Don't knock someone for finding ways to put food on their table. At least they're not on the corner with a cardboard sign that says "Will eat for food"

Sheepish,

Well, to be fair, you didn't say that ALL overweight and/or lonely women hate on strippers. You just said those are the only ones that do. But I agree with the other posters that usually it is those women who don't feel secure with themselves. I read the original story where you apologized tho, lol. So I get that you didn't feel comfortable with what you said. But you didn't word it the way that some people seem to be reading it.

I did not say "only" (Pete did for me) - I said "I find that the typical.." etc. And again, I apologize :|

Pete Kotz said:

Sorry if I misrepresented what you said, Jinx, though I didn't think you had any ill-will in your comment.

Either way, I think people were misreading it and you didn't really have anything to apologize for, at least not in my opinion. People just need to take the time to read comments and what they actually say, not what people THINK they say.

Pete, no worries, and thank you.

Jinx, I agree with TARA. I don't really think you had anything to apologize for! You put your opinion out there. We all do! And at some point we might get attacked for it, but its still our opinion. Look at mine yesterday! I got comment of the day and I said the mom was a shitty ass mom! Bad choice of words? Eh could have worded it better probably! But, that's what I think of her! So, I didn't really think you needed to apologize cause for one, your somewhat right! Its the people who are jealous that usually have a probelm with someone!

Maybe you guys are right, and I appreciate it. I just wanted to be clear that I wasn't really aiming to offend, and the way I'd originally posted, obviously, could be taken as pretty offensive to certain people. Wasn't my goal, that's all.

Jinx, usually the only ones who would take offense to that is the people its true about.

I agree with the topic. Most women are jealous of other women if they have a better body or they are prettier. Women are just nasty most of the time to each other. Sad but true. Look at this girl she is beautiful what man would not look at her? Some mean person reads this story and right away she deserves what happened to her because of were she works? What a bunch of crap. RIP

The only dancers I like work at the Clermont Lounge here in Atlanta, they work hard for the money!

And IMHO (((adjusting monocle))) they can call themselves dancers, but it all boils down to shaking your silicone and shoving your hoo-hoo-dilly in someone's face, whether you like them or not.

And if my dude du an wants to go out to the scrip club with his buddies for a special occasion, sure, go, have a good time!
But the guy who goes night after night, pining over the girls, that is just damn sad!

I agreed with u when u said it the first time Jinx, I understood what u ment u were'nt being simple minded u were bieng thougtful, puttin thought behind ur comments and that says alot on here these days.

I am not lonely overweight or jealous of the attention strippers get, I just dont want some girls crotch in my boyfriends face, knowing that shell put her crotch in any mans face w a 5 dollar bill. I dont hate strippers, I mean at least they're working, and not all strippers are sluts but I think my boyfriend should only have my crotch in his face :)

Considering all the crime reports we get every day about violence against sex workers, including exotic dancers, it seems to me that the ones with a "hate on" for these women are the violent men who harm them.

Sure, obese women may be envious of these younger, physically attractive women, but these same fat gals sure as hell aren't killing strippers and sex workers.

Tee, the comment was made in response to another reader's post where she stated that this woman deserved to be murdered because of the line of work she was in.

Fatties, ug-o's and strippers. They are all such easy targets for tastless flak comments.... no person was EVER meant to be a murder victim

Jinx, I saw that reader's post too and it made me lose a little more hope in humanity. As Bheobe said, "no person was ever meant to be a murder victim."

I live in Fort Worth and have seen this woman before at Baby Dolls. It tears my heart to see such a nice and beautiful person cut down in the prime of their life. And I agree with your post, these girls have it hard enough already without people targeting them like this. At least justice will be served.

I'm an overweight, lonely woman who happens to love strippers. I could never hate them, not even when they take all my money.

I have to agree with this topic. If they werent jealous they wouldnt of gave a s*** about them.

I've been to the 'popular' strip clubs in Los Angeles, California (bacheloret party, Spelling)...I could CARELESS if my guy goes to them. He can't touch the women, they look like zoned out, hopped up on drugs, zombies who, in my opinion seem SMELLY...

The male strippers are worse. Women CAN and DO touch them...

To each their own, I guess.

No, not only fat, lonely girls hate on strippers. That was quite stupid to say. I'm not the skinniest person in the world and i have no issue with strippers or any girls for that matter. The type of girls that hate on strippers are mostly jealous girls. ad they are not all fat. I don;t think you put much thought behind your statement. All sizes of girls hate on other girls, that is just the way most girls, skinny or not are. As i said i a not super skinny, but not fat and i am all for girls that want to be strippers. if they can handle it then awesome, its great money, good for them, but to say only fat girls hate them was ignorant. Jealous girls, who are all sizes, hate strippers.
